It's fun to see Leighton Meester back in a series again. She and Luke Cook are perfectly cast. Cozy mystery with plenty of humor and interesting supporting characters. Can't wait to see how the rest of the series plays out. The premise is an interesting one, estranged brother and sister reunited since the brother needs a job and is desperate to be a detective. The brother has no social skills but is a savvy detective and the sister is the can-do anything detective who works hard and will be her dad's successor as chief. The acting is strong and there's definitely a romance or two on the horizons for the siblings that will make for interesting storylines.
I was never a fan of Leighton Meester previous TV series, so I was skeptical of this one at first.
The other thing that usually puts me off these types of TV shows is that there are enough "cop shows" out there for a lifetime. And most of them aren't "entirely original". In fact, I always have an impression that, with the rarest of exceptions, all American TV Shows are either about "cops" (detectives, FBI, spies, etc) or "doctors" or "lawyers", like there isn't any other people worth writing about.
But this show is just wonderful. It's surely entertaining, with new angles and ideas about the "cop" theme. It's also very very funny without being silly.
And, of course, Leighton shines bright in it with a healthy dose of charm and wit. The other characters are also very well cast and well written, so we can divide our attention equally and the show is never in risk of feeling boring soon.
Looking forward to the next few episodes already. Highly recommended.

As with most new shows you expect there to be some time to develop characters and establish the protocols, but this show started well and just got better. The characters are charming and witty and even the misfit brother has some redeeming qualities.
Although the subject matter is heavy, they play it off in a light manner that just adds to the shows demeanor. I especially like the brother/sister play of the two detectives.
If you're looking for dark and meaningful, this show is not for you . . . But if you're looking for fun, and not taking things too seriously, I recommend that you give this show a try.
I'm looking forward to the next episode!

Great cast & crew. Super captivating and thought out, Love Leighton Meester back at it. <3. It is an interesting dynamic, with a sister whom is kind & caring, but an eccentic & no social-skilled brother. I would like to see a love interest for both. Their father & his partner are both also equally funny too. Excited for more episodes to come. I really like the scenery & dialouge. The other cast members add charm, As someone who loves crime/thriller & sort of murderous genre department, this blew me away. I hope this can be renewed for a season 2, it only has 8 episodes! Not enough, ha! A must watch.
I don't think this show is trying to be anything more than it is. Easy watch, easy premise, and overall enjoyable. Fun detective stories with a brother and sister back and forth - I think in this climate we need stuff that helps us shut off.
I need some fun in my entertainment with a semi predictable storyline's but with a different structure of family. I really hope this show gets picked up and continues. Plus I like anything supporting the Australian filming economy and Australian actors. I think this could be great for numerous reasons. Good fun - give it a try. It's no Sherlock Holmes but it's genuine fun.
